Answer: Cos A = 45/53

Explanation:

Triangle ABC is a right angle triangle.

From the given right angle triangle,

AB represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle.

With m∠A as the reference angle,

AC represents the adjacent side of the right angle triangle.

BC represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.

To determine Cos ∠A, we would apply

the cosine trigonometric ratio.

Cos θ, = adjacent side/hypotenuse. Therefore,

Cos A = 45/53
